you probably recognize this famous face it's mona lisa of course but do you know how she was created here will find out later on in the show. hello and welcome to another fun filled edition of your imax here's a look at what else we've got coming up. the comic book asterix has been delighting fans worldwide for 60 years now there's a new body. and at the oyster festival on the danish island of wormer everything revolves around this delicacy. he's one of the most beloved comic figures in the world even at the age of 60 i am talking about the gaulish warrior asterix a french national hero well this year marks an important anniversary and there is certainly lots to celebrate since $959.00 asterix has been translated into more than $100.00 languages and has also made it to the silver screen no less than 14

times now fans all over the world are gearing up for a new set of adventures. asterix is celebrating his 60th birthday with a brand new adventure the fans can hardly wait. the creators are once again. and. it's their 4th book they're the successors of the originators. and. asterix is not a typical hero he's no superman but more a caricature when you look at him you can't really take him seriously. if. the little guy all uses his brains and bravery against the romans brawn he wins every time asterix is a modern version of david and goliath with humor his fame has spread far beyond france over 380000000 copies have been sold worldwide the last edition sold 5000000

in 2 years alone. to new authors who put up with each other and for us are really wasn't easy at 1st. we were lucky all 3 editions have been a success. happened working together since 2013 but. daughter and i. still have the last word. first they send me a summary and then the new chapters one by one if i get the feeling that the ideas are moving too far away from the original concept i let them know on the other hand they have to have a certain freedom. either way to original idea is very present you know. the current edition asterix and the chieftains daughter

speaks to a new generation and the story is built around the female character named. the officer. the asterix comic already has so many male characters so it's a lot easier for us to develop female characters who suffer or. so that we live in a time when women act differently and the perception of women has changed it you know but i wouldn't say that we've gone feminist with asterix he said but that that just wouldn't work and that the. pastor rick sent his power have to deal with think rebellious teenager it's a smart move fin sidran health popular asterix is with young people even read in french classes this one is tempered with references everyone will get the blacksmith's son for instance is called self thinks. without these new characters it would hardly be possible to breathe fresh life into the existing concept you have. for. the reader should never feel we're making

a copy then all would be lost the concept has to recall the original but within this framework everything has to be new and different. france is going all out to celebrate this 60th birthday with surprise events in the paris metro and a special edition of asterix stamps. since if. people know asterix on like this character they automatically connect the comic books with something positive and familiar. by the. in a bookshop i overheard a mother tell her son you're not getting anything he disappeared and came back with an asterisk comic his mother said well all right you can't say no to a national treasure but he was. the crack writer illustrator team seem to have no shortage of ideas they've already worked out which way the next adventure is to go. both feel we have to be more more imaginative it's just. in the next

edition i want asterix to take an ironic look at himself. to be able to really laugh at himself but to do that he's got to be the center of the story. but 1st they'll have to see how asterix fans receive the latest volume. next up we are headed to amsterdam now if you're looking for a hotel that is literally off the beaten path then how about a bridge keep 1st cabin these are little houses that were once used to monitor traffic on the canals now since the bad job is automated these days some of the cabins are now available for a unique overnight experience we travelled to amsterdam to test one out. bridge keepers cabins they're as much a part of amsterdam as road bikes and they come in every shape and size. the bridge

a kitchen and a bedroom with a panoramic view of the canal. the interior designers chosen to accentuate the 17th century architecture. we tried to tell the story of this house by by using the calls from there right periods by opening up the attic to show what it actually was like but also to put in some things like this can that was used to drink beer and wine in the 17th century to show our guests like we're actually you know what was this period like how were people eating how were they drinking built in 1956 him in new objectivity style for lodgings of the horton spoke our bit more modern clear lines and colors continue inside. among the furnishings is an original chair by the powerhouse pioneer.

toilet seat it's a great idea but you have to be prepared to play live tetris here and there because the space is very limited but for a couple of days and nights it's lovely. they may be small but the bridge keepers cabins offer a unique way to experience arms to down. with $360.00 degree views. point adorable accommodation all right staying on the water the oyster has a reputation of being an expensive delicacy usually enjoyed with a glass of champagne but along denmark's north sea coast when the tides are low there is a nice to be had for free on the beach the season is short so or is for lovers have to act quickly and they did so with

a master at solving the rubik's cube he also uses it to create pieces of art now we met up with him to find out why this little toy is his material of choice. my name is on the grid my portrayed by the news of russia and the youth with its. giovani can tardies puts over 700 cubes and as much as 2 hours into each of his portraits he doesn't put in the 1st clue either the frame holds the cubes in place or the image. falls to pieces as soon as it's completed he's got nearly 350000 followers on instagram he generally makes portraits of famous figures some of the stars share the images on social media when him even more followers they share his fascination with the q. one people look at your solving a cube in 10 seconds they think of you as an alien someone from another planet same

is with the artwork but it's something more fascinating. giovani can target you started out by setting records he set an impressive 60 italian records 9 european ones and 3 world records he solves the rubik's cube in less than 10 seconds even under water. we asked him to create a picture for your romance he chose a woman whose face everyone knows mona lisa by leonardo da vinci. the challenge here is not to solve the rubik's cube as fast as he can but to resolve the image into pixels on the computer. how he does it is his secret. he only reveals enough to give you an idea. one of the the things that i do is actually work with the picture one is still in

black and white the reason is that i know how these. from white to black would looks would look like one of the colors of the q i like to work on the design when it's done on these 4. because i can keep it a little bit more close to the original into the. hardly anyone notices that one particular color is always missing. i actually don't use the green because it doesn't look good we've got a close it's only 5 colors to create an image and so the hardest part for me is create that design which can take. 10 days depending on how difficult it is. in the town where he was born adriatic so. he's able to live from the start he's even under contract with the new york city gallery sells his works to

collectors around the world for 5 figure sums. but he sees no need to leave as. he's done a portrait of the town's most famous son opera composer george seem good publicity for the opera himself and the town. is very. outside of here for 4 years. during that experience i love. my family of course. and anyone from here. back to the mona lisa once again he uses over 700 rubik's cubes you construct the portrait line by line taking short breaks now and then that's important because it's easy to make

a mistake but extremely difficult to fix it later on. to close to the portrait as they like to see everything that is going on. i need to make sure that there are no mistakes because. it's impossible to change it. from the very 1st cue it took chobani can tarty only about 90 minutes to complete our mona lisa. of course the very last book is always satisfying. i love it i think it's great yeah. the 500 year old painting as a 5 color mosaic and the riddle of the rubik's cube portrait is concealed with a mysterious smile. extreme athletes are all about pushing their limits and german mountain climber. does just that she discovered her passion for mountaineering on a trip to south america just

a few years ago and after that the sky was the limit since then she's completed 12 expeditions in just 4 years and she was the youngest german woman to climb mount everest we hear from her now about what it takes to go to such extremes. planet to top the moment you're totally focused on the moment you live in the here and now you're investigating landscapes. went on your block of trains in zurich she attracts attention the time isn't meant to simulate heavy sleds in snow it's the optimum training hiring stream sport that when with an oath i'm not a total sporting ace but i do have a solid basic fitness said that's what's important for expeditions 7 being able to keep up a certain performance over long periods. she didn't stop mountaineering tell us she was $25.00 within 3 years on your block and had scaled the 7 summits the highest

peaks on every continent and she's the youngest german woman to climb mount everest but she also got to know the sport's dangers they said almost but i made my personally saw somebody die on everest and. and it makes you wonder what do i live for and how much risk am i willing to take from to me it's worth the risk that i might die that's a stab. in the summer of 2019 she ascended the world's 2nd highest peak k 2 without an oxygen mask. black and that why would i like to discover and experience something new and go a little further than i did the last time to see what else i can experience now on your blockers getting ready for her next experience 60 days in the frozen antarctic wasteland on her around. it's bad if on that quest i'm going to cross from the

coast of antarctica 1400 kilometers to the south pole the starting point is berkner island and the route leads across the ice on the continental plate through mountain ranges and then across the polar plateau or till finally i arrive at the geographic south pole. there are no supply dept i was along the way so 29 year old on your back or will have to carry everything she needs. she's meticulously selected have provisions. as it is i'm texas i stick you know all together this weighs 66 kilos and i loaded onto the sled in daily rations lots of freeze dried fair lots of nuts i don't think i've got so many calories per 100 grams and a high fat content lots of sweets powdered butter just to add more fat to everything and i have a lot of protein powder along a spat talks that i'll be exerting myself every day and my muscles will have

practically no time to recuperate so i thought. no woman has ever yet gone so far across antarctica on foot or only contact to the outside world will be via 2 satellite telephones powered by solar panels she did a trial run earlier in the year in greenland. doesn't matter that they know there are many things i'm afraid of if at us about that i fall into a crevasse for example but that would be a fatal scenario. that i'm afraid some critical piece of equipment might or a could become unusable or that i might have overestimated myself at. one last practice session before she takes off to the antarctic. she feels well prepared for what is likely the most daring challenge of her life. i'm. azing and with that it is time to say goodbye dover to check out our website
